You can enjoy the smooth drive of your vehicle whole year with regular service checkups for all important accessories and parts of a vehicle. The <strong>9 months car checkup<\/strong> is as important as any other checkup of the car. It matters a lot as it checks the car for the maintenance of major <a href=\"https:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/part-exchange\">car parts<\/a> and accessories which are important to regulate the health of the car in general.<\/p>\n<h2>Components of the 9 Months Checkup of the Car<\/h2>\n<p>The 9 months checkup follows the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/uae\/half-yearly-car-maintenance-guide\/\">6 months checkup of the car<\/a> which was more comprehensive. The 9 months maintenance check furthers refines the vehicle\u2019s performance and prepares it for consistent durability.<\/p>\n<p>We shall discuss one by one all the essential maintenance checks of different parts of a vehicle when it is services for the 9 months checkup:<\/p>\n<h3>Fluid for Automatic Transmission<\/h3>\n<p>Automatic Transmission Fluid gets checked to see if the level of the fluid is appropriate for the functioning of the automatic car. The evaporation or leakage can at times lead to the <strong>premature drop in the level of the fluid<\/strong>. A potential drop in the fluid level can damage the automatic transmission and can lead to malfunctioning of the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19725\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/automatic-transmission-fluid-change-1.jpg\" alt=\"Automatic transmission fluid-change\" width=\"600\" height=\"528\" srcset=\"http:\/\/18.202.220.25\/en\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/automatic-transmission-fluid-change-1.jpg 524w, http:\/\/18.202.220.25\/en\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/automatic-transmission-fluid-change-1-300x264.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Engine Belts<\/h3>\n<p>The health of engine belts gets ensured to prevent any damage to the engine while driving. The sudden breaking of engine belts which are not properly maintained can lead to severe <strong>damages to the car engine<\/strong> and lead to the immediate stopping of the car.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19735 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/engine-belts-e1467698048675.jpg\" alt=\"Engine belts\" width=\"600\" height=\"897\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Indicator Lights on Dashboard<\/h3>\n<p>The indicator lights are thoroughly examined. Most of the dashboard indicator lights get turned off when the engine is started but if any of the lights on the dashboard stay on even after starting the engine, it indicates a possible problem with the lights. The checkup ensures their proper functioning.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19827\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/dashboard-lights-on.png\" alt=\"Check all dashboard lights\" width=\"600\" height=\"193\" srcset=\"http:\/\/18.202.220.25\/en\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/dashboard-lights-on.png 700w, http:\/\/18.202.220.25\/en\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/dashboard-lights-on-300x96.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Air Filter of the Engine<\/h3>\n<p>Air Filter of the Engine can <strong>accumulate dust and other impurities<\/strong>. It gets checked to either get it cleaned or to replace it with the new one if needed. Air filter is an important component for the proper functioning of the engine.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19695 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Engine-Air-filter-e1467615534503.jpg\" alt=\"Check Engine Air filter\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Engine Oil<\/h3>\n<p>Engine Oil usually needs to be changed after the vehicle covers 4,000-6,000 kilometers (depends on the type of oil you are using). The 9 months checkup ensures that the <strong>engine oil carries enough lubrication<\/strong> to support the engine. If not, it is changed with new engine oil.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19737\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/engine-oil-e1467697881120.jpg\" alt=\"Engine oil\" width=\"600\" height=\"479\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Exhaust System<\/h3>\n<p>The maintenance of the exhaust system is very important. The <em>combustion of the engine releases multiple gases<\/em> through the exhaust system. It has the tailpipes which are associated with the muffler of the car. Any potential leak in the exhaust system can lead to entry of the harmful gases into the car cabin.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19829\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/car-exhaust-system-e1468414295484.jpg\" alt=\"Car exhaust system\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Hoses<\/h3>\n<p>The 9 months car maintenance checkup is important for the services of the hoses. Hoses are there for the <strong>transfer of the coolant<\/strong> which is actually very hot. The coolant is about <strong>200 degrees hot<\/strong> and that makes the hoses vulnerable to damage. The checkup keeps them in best shape.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-19691\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/car-hoses.jpg\" alt=\"check Engine and car hoses\" srcset=\"http:\/\/18.202.220.25\/en\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/car-hoses.jpg 640w, http:\/\/18.202.220.25\/en\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/car-hoses-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>All Lights<\/h3>\n<p>All lights of the car must work properly to <strong>avoid any dangerous situation<\/strong>.

The tyres are also checked for their tread condition. <em>The poor tread condition of the tyres can prove to be deadly at high speeds<\/em>.
